In this article, we discuss preoperative clinical evaluation, diagnostic considerations, and the role/choice of antibiotics. Operative planning is discussed with attention to patient characteristics/d...
The gallstone disease prevalence is up to 27% in the general adult population. Though most of the patients are asymptomatic, about 1-4% of these patients became symptomatic every year and will require...
Cholecystectomy (CE) is one of the most frequently performed surgical interventions and the main method of symptomatic gallstone disease treatment. Despite the widespread implementation of minimally i...
Laparoscopic Subtotal Cholecystectomy (SC) is a technique for performing safe cholecystectomy when excessive inflammation prevents exposure of the Critical View of Safety. Studies have evaluated outco...
We performed a retrospective review of LC performed at an academic medical center. Demographics were analyzed using descriptive statistics. We performed a multivariable logistic regression to examine ...
Between November 1, 2017, and November 1, 2021, there were 1222 LC performed. 771 patients (63%) were female. 89 patients (7.3%) underwent SC. There were no bile duct injuries requiring reconstruction...
We find no difference in the rate of performance of SC between junior and senior faculty. This reflects consistency, in keeping with best practice guidelines. This could be confounded by junior facult...
The utility of incidental appendectomy, appendectomy during another index surgery in the absence of appendicitis, has not been evaluated in the pediatric population during cholecystectomy. This study ...
Patients ≤ 18 years old who underwent cholecystectomy from 2010-2014 were identified from the Nationwide Readmissions Database. A propensity score-matched analysis (PSMA) with > 40 covariates includin...
34,390 patients underwent cholecystectomy (median age 15 [13-17] years). Laparoscopic (92%) approach was utilized most frequently, with 2% requiring conversion to open cholecystectomy. PSMA demonstrat...
This nationwide PSMA indicates that incidental appendectomy in pediatric cholecystectomies is not associated with higher postoperative complications, cost, or readmissions. This suggests that incident...

Mirizzi syndrome is defined as a common hepatic duct obstruction from a cystic duct stone, which results in a severe inflammatory reaction that distorts biliary anatomy and makes surgical intervention...
Functional gallbladder disorder is most commonly defined by biliary colic and low ejection fraction (EF) on cholescintigraphy. Biliary hyperkinesia is a controversial type of functional gallbladder di...
We conducted a retrospective review of patients who underwent cholecystokinin-stimulated cholescintigraphy and cholecystectomy at 3 Mayo Clinic sites between 2007 and 2020. Eligible patients were 18 y...
A total of 2,929 cholecystokinin-stimulated cholescintigraphy scans were performed during the study period; the average EF was 67.5% and the median EF was 77%. Analyzing those with EFs greater than or...
We determined that an EF cutoff of 81% is a reasonable upper limit of normal gallbladder EF. Patients with biliary symptoms and an EF greater than 81% but no evidence of biliary disease on ultrasound ...
Textbook outcome (TO) is a novel composite measure of clinical outcomes that can be used to measure the quality of surgical outcomes. The aim of this cohort study was to propose TO criteria for laparo...
We retrospectively analyzed data for 189 patients with acute cholecystitis who underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy. TO was defined as laparoscopic cholecystectomy without conversion to open cholecy...
TO was achieved in 154 of 189 patients who underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy for acute cholecystitis. Medical costs were lower in the TO-achieved group than in the TO-failure group. Factors assoc...
Applying TO to patients with acute cholecystitis allowed us to evaluate the overall quality of care related to hospitalization. TO may provide better assessment of the quality of care and help determi...
To compare the short-term outcomes of robotic single-site cholecystectomy (RSSC) with single-incision laparoscopic cholecystectomy (SILC) and conventional multiport laparoscopic cholecystectomy (CMLC)...
This single-center retrospective study included consecutive patients with benign gallbladder disease who underwent cholecystectomy by a single surgeon between June 2019 and December 2021. Exclusion cr...
Of the 157 patients included, 39 (24.8%) underwent RSSC, 32 (20.4%) underwent SILC, and 86 (54.8%) underwent CMLC. In a propensity score-matched cohort between RSSC and SILC (32 patients in each group...
This study demonstrated that RSSC is helpful in reducing postoperative pain and the use of additional analgesics compared to both SILC and CMLC....
Asymptomatic cholelithiasis is a highly prevalent disease, and became more evident after the currently greater access to imaging tests. Therefore, it is increasingly necessary to analyse the risks and...
To seek the best evidence in order to indicate prophylactic cholecystectomy or conservative treatment (clinical follow-up) in patients with asymptomatic cholelithiasis....
A systematic review was performed using the PubMed/Medline database, according to PRISMA protocol guidelines. The review was based on studies published between April 26, 2001 and January 07, 2022, rel...
We selected 18 studies eligible for inference production after applying the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Also, the Tokyo Guideline (2018) was included for better clarification of some topics less...
Most evidence point to the safety and feasibility of conservative treatment (clinical follow-up) of asymptomatic cholelithiasis. However, in post-cardiac transplant patients and those with biliary mic...
